Hey Chris,
Love the show. True, Nosferatu is probably not scary to modern audiences. I must of been 4 or 5 and had an issue of Famous Monster’s magazine that featured pictures from the movie. At 45, I can tell you that the images have stayed with me. I remember a picture of him in the shadow where his hand is extended it looks like a tree branch. I assumed that the creature could turn into a tree. That way children would walk right to him.
Maybe 15 years back I saw the film with an audience at The Music Box in Chicago. I doubt if anyone was frightened. Still,I think it’s a great movie.
I’m going to be out here listening. Thanks.
